Profile

Having worked in production at various different levels I have a full understanding of the whole production process. I have excellent organisational and time-management skills as well as excellent communication and interpersonal skills. I have the ability to take and carry out instructions with enthusiasm and efficiency as well as a good stock of common sense and initiative. I can interact and co-ordinate with a large number and variety of people whilst displaying diplomacy and patience. I am flexible and well organised, and able to think on my feet. I consider my self to be level- headed, and able to work calmly and effectively under pressure. I contribute to good working relationships with people on all levels, and help to create a positive atmosphere on productions. I understand the importance of working long and unsocial hours to get the job done.
